Secondary Rates

Secondary Rates defines the rate paid to an employee who works in a specific pay type, shift type or organization level.  In the example below, we will set the rate to trigger based upon a job level worked and will pay $7.00 above their base rate of pay while working in that org level job.

Navigating to Secondary Rates

In the Main Navigation menu, open the Employee Maintenance >> Employee Assignments folder
Click on Secondary Rates page
